WHERE DOES GRIP COME FROM?

It’s one of the seemingly endless questions we ask to challenge the status quo of climbing skin design. Skins that cover the entire base of your skis are overkill and heavy.

Exposed ski base and alternative materials can significantly improve glide and efficiency without affecting that all- important grip.
